Tascam DS-M7.1 Manuel D’Utilisation

The TASCAM DS-M7.1 is designed to help you 
manage the monitoring of mixes of surround sound 
projects.

All major surround formats are supported, from 
LCRS to 7.1.

Providing flexible switching and routing facilities 
between a digital recording console such as the TAS-

CAM DM-24 and digital multitrack (tracking) 
recorders as well as the multitrack recorder being 
used to master the surround mix (the stem recorder), 
the DS-M7.1 can be used for monitoring of the mix 
as it comes off the console, as well as the recorded 
mix from the mastering recorder, with the push of 
one front panel key.

The signals are switched and routed in the digital 
domain, allowing the highest possible quality to be 
maintained throughout the system.

Monitoring signals are output in both digital and ana-
log format, and either can be selected as best suits the 
needs of the facility in which the DS-M7.1 is 
installed.

Downmixing is an important part of the surround mix 
process, and the DS-M7.1 allows the operator to 

select from a very wide range of downmix options 
and settings.

Bass management for monitoring comparisons with 
consumer-oriented systems which lack a dicrete LFE 
channel is well supported, with user-selectable cross-
over and level settings, etc.

Connections are made using industry-standard 
cables, and the slots for up to three optional 
TASCAM expansion cards provide great flexibility,
